Number of hours worked out and number of calories burned - Speech or Presentation Example The data came from a random survey of 100 participants who actively exercised daily. They were asked to list the main form of exercise they partake. Their weight as well as the average hours of work out per day were recorded and the calories burnt computed based on the averages reported on literature. In particular its expected that a person weighing 70kg would burn 560,490, 245 and 420 calories by running, jogging, walking and cycling for one hour respectively. Statistica analysis was performed using simple tools such as graphs, table of summaries, correlation analysis and regression analysis. To begin with, the distribution of respondents with regard to their main form of exercise is summarized by the pie chart below. In this case, there were equal numbers of respondents per form of exercise (Kutner, et al., 2005). A summary of the various parameters of interested is presented in the following table. It is clear that the average weight of respondents was about 80Kg in all the categories. Moreover people worked out an average of 3.5 hours per day burning 1000 and 2600 calories. A look at the trend in the calories burn out for various forms of exercise was done by plotting line graphs. To begin with, a line graph of calories burnt against the hours worked our is presented hereunder. On average, the more hours of cyclingp, the more calories are
